Echo Farm

Overview

Spend an hour or two interacting with animals and reconnecting with nature at Echo Farm, located on Mount Gambier's fringe.

Echo Farm offers a step back in time and an immediate sense of calm through interaction with a variety of farm and native animals. An assortment of historic displays combined with the old farmhouse, as it was in the 1940s, add charm.

Echo Farm is open for self-guided visits Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, public holidays and extra days during school holidays. Stroll around the old-style farm at your own pace on a Self-Guided visit, feed the animals, explore the outbuildings and chat to the farmers who live on-site. Animal food and farm trail map are included in your entry fee and we suggest allowing at least an hour for your visit. A small range of snacks, drinks & souvenirs are available along with home-made scones.

Small group Guided Tours are offered most mornings, Camp Fire Experiences on weekends, and High Teas monthly, however booking is essential for these experiences. Unique and personal guided tours can be tailored especially for schools or larger groups at other times by arrangement.

A visit to Echo Farm is suitable for any age, from toddlers to great-grandparents, but there is some walking on uneven ground and we suggest dressing for outdoor weather conditions and wearing covered walking shoes if possible.
